Srex, your posts last sentences.

Ari Fleischer said the administration is following a regulation signed in January by Attorney General Janet Reno, who ruled that records can be used only to audit the background check system.

Such regulations are easily changed, countered Clinton administration officials and other critics"

The waver given by Reno has the clear intent of saying it is OK to verify that the system is working. This is an allow Reno rule and not a deny Reno rule.

Thus anyone from mr. bill's administration who suggests the rules can be changed is very amusing.

Why was an allow rule needed. ?? Clearly the law precludes checking these records. It's a law, not a rule.
The law could be changed. Senators do that with abandon.

I guess, like Watson, you chose to ignore what Deputy Assistant Attorney General Richard L. Shiffrin and Assistant Attorney General Randolph G. Moss said.

He has sent directives to change lots of things recently, this decision just shows me and many other people who can think for themselves, just how much the NRA has Ashcroft in their pockets. End of discussion for me.
